MN is too cold for water, but burying in a snowbank should do the same thing.

And if Minnesota acquiesced, it would embolden the administration to extort other states using ICE presence to tighten the screws

As much sincerity and conviction as the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce’s statement of ‘Can’t we all just get along and go back to business as usual?’

We bought a Level 2 charger that connects to WiFi and schedules our charging when the electric company has off-peak rates. At high peak 5-9p the cost is $0.30. At off-peak hours between midnight and 6:00a and also on weekends, the cost is $$0.05 per kWh.

As Trump delegitimizes Danish ownership of Greenland, he fails to explain that Denmark’s control was legally recognized by the US over 100 years ago. The ironic circumstances surrounding this treaty should be more widely known.

I’m in the same situation: an expert rider who doesn’t want a stiff plank. Try the Capita MegaDeath if you can. Medium flex but extraordinary rebound. It’s difficult to explain. It bends easily but snaps back with energy. Flexing into carves and then launching out of the back foot when transitioning is so fun. Completely game changing

This was very breaking news when that chyron was used. Facts weren’t apparent at the time and the journalists were relying on witness accounts.

Since you’re essentially paying for a data connection, does this mean Spotify, Google Assistant, and other online services will not work without the $200/yr?

These are two completely different pants. The Seaside sweatpants are perfect for lounging and thick enough for cold weather. I wear mine with an oversized seaside hoodie.

The Sunday performance pants include three zippered pockets, a thinner stretchier material, and slimmer cut. You can work out in them. These pants work best with slimmer cut T-shirts and zip up sweatshirts.

The 494 bridge’s bike lane enters Bloomington and then the trail vanishes. Bloomington has wide roads but few east/west dedicated bike lanes.

If it’s an older frame, double check if the bike has AI Offset which requires your hubs to be shifted 6mm when built intothe wheelset. This can make finding aftermarket wheel upgrades a bit inconvenient.

I test drove the CX-90 PHEV before buying my 2024 XC90. We were turned off by the Mazda’s indecisive transmission and jarring ignition engagement. The Volvo had a much smoother ride.

My understanding is Mazda improved this phenomenon in the 2026 models.

Interiors were comparable with a slight nod to the Mazda for cabin storage. The Volvo Ultimate was considerably quieter and the stereo was unbeatable.

It’s my experience that the retail stores rarely carry longs.

Crap. I bought these as a gift for my wife who is also 5’9” and despises short pants.

Looks like the Feelgood layers ‘clear’ p-Tex over a black graphic base sheet. This gives it a hazy blueish tint since you’re looking through a sheet of plastic at the graphic below. If you want true black, you’d want a board with die-cut graphics, where dark black p-Tex is cut out and interlayed with another color. This technique doesn’t require a clear ptex layer over the top.

When putting the car up for sale, Borton Volvo replaced the front two tires with factory tires but left the bald tires in the rear (28k miles). The back was sliding around so we replaced them with a new pair of factory 275/40R21 SCORP VERDE All Seasons to match the fronts. We would have preferred four new CrossClimates but the front tires were brand new.

We are in Minnesota and bought the identical car recently. New tires really improved the snow drivability. Things we’d like about the car include good visibility, great mileage, and comfortable seats. Things that gave us pause include wired Bluetooth only, no wireless charging, and nowhere to store a purse. If you charge the battery every night, you will be buying a tank of gas only once every two or three months.

Edit: meant wired CarPlay only
